Regulation of Providers of Building Works and Building Control (Amendment) Bill 2022: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2022-05-31
============================================================

Darragh O'Brien (FF), Dublin Fingal

I understand the thrust of the amendment but I must oppose it as section 44 will seek to provide that a failure to comply with building control regulations is grounds for a complaint. That is outside the scope of this Bill. The register is a register of competence of providers of building works. I agree with the Senator that failure to comply with building regulations is very serious. However, it is a matter for the building control authorities. Complaints will be made under the Building Control Act 1990 to the building control authorities.
